I once gained seventy pounds in a year's time, from 190 to 260.

I'll take slower gaining without the crippling depression, though, please and thank you.

I counted calories fairly strictly for about a week recently, just to give myself an idea of how much I ought to be eating in order to gain at the rate I want to. Once you get an idea of how many calories per gram are in different types of foods, though, it's easy to estimate how much you've had in a day. Just a few days ago I had about 6000 calories throughout the course of a single day, which is really quite a lot for me, possibly the most I've ever eaten... don't know how that matches up with the rest of you, of course, but I was right proud of myself, that I was.

Fatnats was great while it lasted.

Hello, I am Sam, and I am relatively new around these parts. I am twenty-one, and I live on the lower lip of New York state if you think of the shape of the state as being a side view of a horse's head making an odd face. I write stories and plays and compose for orchestras. I'm a genderqueer. Some people encounter me and wonder if I talk like this all the time, and the answer is yes, I either talk like this or not at all. I am an ISTP, like Frank Zappa. I do enjoy talking to and getting to know people, even though my social behaviour in large groups such as this forum or the accompanying chatroom tends to consist of sitting in a dark corner and lobbing tenuously linked curiosities onto unsuspecting, and often uninterested, heads. Pleased to meet you.
